Western Scream Queens

Western Scream Queens is one of the newest LGBTQ+ clubs. Join other horror movie enthusiasts for weekly showings and discussions of horror films with LGBTQ+ themes.

This club is intended to create a space where queers who love horror can gather and discuss their interests without judgment. I’ve always believed in the inherent value and queerness of horror in that it has the ability to tackle the issues other genres cannot and represent the Other like, well, none other. Queerness finds a safe place in that Other and many people like me have found a safe place within horror fandom. The plan at this point is to meet regularly and watch a queer horror film, that is a horror film with a queer creator and/or queer themes, followed by a discussion of the films history and queerness. This will also be an excellent opportunity to uplift queer horror creators and films that may have slipped through the cracks of cultural consciousness as well as educating queer folks about our rich history within the genre. Join their discord here!
